Explanation

This is the actual text of the bill—the legislation itself. Generally this is
amending existing law, proposing the addition or removal of words from laws that are
already on the books, but sometimes it’s proposing an entirely new law.

The numbers with the § symbol before them are references to existing laws, and
if you click on them they’ll take you to that section of the Code of Virginia.
